Exclusive Premiere: Memory Cassette, “Last One Awake (CFCF RMX)” MP3

Memory Cassette just dropped their Call & Response EP, which is all excellently woozy, rhythmic cloud-surfing... but it's already completely sold out. Rather, the 500 limited edition hard copies are sold out... enterprising young internetters may still cop the digital traxx from Acephale, and in the interest of preserving our well-preened reputation as the anti-Debbie Downers of music reportage, we present to you a remix of "Last One Awake" by our main dude CFCF, the Quebecois whose thoughtful synthpop tracks stay on the office stereo. For "Last One Awake" he's worked the gauziness of Memory Cassette's fabric into a "Rhythm is a Dancer"y nuovo trance, his choppy synths and muted drums dramatizing the Memory Cassette vocals you can never quite see past the mist. A whole remix EP is coming later this week, videos to follow, so feel free to wait with bated breath.
